Im looking for a new pow ski, I'm somewhat limited to what I can get because the shop only has a small selection of companies that make twin tip pow skis (4FRNT, Armada, Line). So far I have been considering 4FRNT Inthayne's, 4FRNT Uptrack Massif, Line Pescado, and Armada Magic J. Let know what you like or dislike about them or have any better suggestions.

I haven't skied them yet, and there's not much out there on the ski since only 25 were made last year, but I just purchased a pair of Inthaynes. Planning to do a small little review and answer questions once I get a few days on them, which sadly won't be to the end of November most likely.

So you are only limited to 4FRNT, Line, and Armada?

Thanks dude can't wait to read it. Also unfortunately yes I can get discount on those brands through work and just makes it more budget friendly for me. But I am open to other options.

Yeah that's totally fine if those are the brands you can get.

Out of the brands you get a discount on, look into

4FRNT Inthayne, Massif
Line Mordecai, Sick Day 114
Armada Magic J, ARV 116, Tracer 118

Additionally id look into Caravan Skis and ON3P. Might be a bit pricey, especially without a discount, but they make good stuff.

ON3P will give industry discount to shop employees who's shops don't carry their product.

Moment will as well. As long as you work in the outdoor industry, we'll help you out with a discount. Ski patroller, ski shop employee, liftie, bike shop employee, mountain ambassador, you work at REI...if you work in any kind of field even close to those I listed, it never hurts to ask for a discount. Most companies will have a link with a form at the bottom of their website to apply for a discount / proform code.
